We are on countdown to less than 2 weeks until the end of trash-talking campaign ads as election season is winding down to a close.
THANK GOODNESS!!
I'm not ready for the Christmas commercials to begin, but the few I've seen have actually been refreshing, and a welcome change, compared to the doom & gloom of attack ads for the looming of Super Tuesday.
However, this means Super Tuesday is right around the corner. And it is incredibly important we get out there to vote on November 8th!
No, the presidential candidates are not the best of choices, but don't let this particular race deter you from voting if you are registered to vote.
This is Super Tuesday we are talking about! There's more than one issue & office on the ballot that need our voices heard!
If you click HERE, you will see a sample ballot for just my county. My municipality will have additional voting on top of this, as well as other surrounding municipalities. Look at all of it! There is a whole lot more going on, voting-wise, than just president. There's other federal, state, and local candidates & issues to focus on, too. It's my thinking that this ballot is not alone.
How do we break all of this down? If you go to BALLOTPEDIA, there you will find an incredible breakdown of the candidates & issues! Research this stuff so you know what & who you are voting on.
With all of that said, I want to, once again, turn my attention to my fella female registered voters across this great land:
Early voting has begun in many places. Even if you are voting early, or by absentee ballot, remember THE REVOLUTION! Get out your yellow, get a yellow sash, find something as a yellow sash, and get your vote on!
Whether you vote early, or if you vote on Super Tuesday, remind ourselves about what the suffragettes before us were fighting for. We haven't been casting ballots for a hundred years yet. This is still shiny & new. Let's keep using our 19th amendment right to get in there & make our voices heard.
Remember, when you vote, early or on November 8th, and no matter who or what it is you're voting for, let's use our harmony of voting voices to remind ourselves, remind each other, and remind the nation that we do vote.
When you go vote, like I said, remember to wear your yellow sash, or wear yellow (the main color of the American suffragette movement), then get a selfie or two:
* in front of the polling place, OUTSIDE
* with your voting sticker
* in your yellow
Be sure to hashtag it, across social media, with #YellowSashRevolution. Let's get this visual movement going!

| Here's 2 of my sashes I've made, recently, along with my last sticker & other adornments I'm considering wearing. |
Remember, there are laws about where photos can be taken, and what of, on voting day. There are states that don't allow photos inside the polling place or at the voting booth, but the grander scale is no photos of the ballot & who you have voted for!
Also, you are not to wear candidate &/or issue campaign wear inside the polling place.
Please be a smart voter. Use your right, use your head, use your heart, use your conscience, use your voice, wear your yellow, and go vote!
I'm not a "copy & paste this" or a "share this post" kind of person, but let's band together, as women registered to vote, and make our presence known!
You in? Who's with me?
UPDATE: Support the movement by getting your #YellowSashRevolution Twibbon added to your photo HERE!
Stay tuned...
God Bless, AM~Erica
